    “There is only one major drawback with The Chota House.”

    For a property of this price range the ‘main’ bedroom provides a tiny bed not much larger than a large single! My partner is 6 ft 2 and it was ridiculous with his feet hanging over the end, not to mention the fact that we had to lie like two stone effigies in order to fit ! The room needs a new bed. We measured up and it is perfectly possible to get a 5 foot wide (King) bed into this room. It looks as though all the beds are old pine beds and this problem has not been addressed since ...

We measured up and it is perfectly possible to get a 5 foot wide (King) bed into this room. It looks as though all the beds are old pine beds and this problem has not been addressed since about 2006 !! this is a simple fix and really needs to be done. I know I am not the first to have made the same complaint.

About the location

SALCOMBE

Kingsbridge 7 miles; Dartmouth 21 miles; Plymouth 24 miles; Paignton 26 miles.

Salcombe is a popular destination for walkers and families looking for a holiday by the sea and was once a major port. There are two pretty beaches within a short distance, North Sands and South Sands and further on is the National Trust property Overbeck’s where you can wander through the subtropical gardens. Why not have a more adventurous day and try out the watersports available on the estuary including surfing, kayaking or a more leisurely boat trip? Whilst staying in Salcombe you must take advantage of the locally sourced seafood which is served in many of the restaurants, pubs, cafés and delicatessens. The southern tip of Devon provides some spectacular scenery and picturesque vistas with a number of sandy beaches, lovely villages with thatched cottages and some fantastic opportunities for walking, including the South West Coast path.
